This kind of mother felt unfamiliar to him, and a little frightening.
If Mom can scheme against Dad like this, will she scheme against him in the same way?
At that moment, he suddenly wanted to sit a little to the side, to get away, and he actually did it.
His actions made Mo Lei a little sad. Was her son afraid of her?
"Son, I know you can't accept what I'm saying right now. You think I've changed, that I've become a little scary, don't you?"
Shen Ning nodded in agreement. Yes, he really felt that his mother had changed too quickly, which was a bit scary.
He didn't expect his mother to guess it, let alone say it so directly.
"Mom, I've always felt that you're gentle in my heart, but what you just said... it's a bit..."
My brain can't hold that many things.
"Give me some time, let me digest this slowly, okay?"
Mo Lei wanted to give him time, but life wouldn't give her that.
"If I could, I would want to protect you from the wind and rain for the rest of my life, and I hope you would remain so innocent and kind forever."
But my child, your mother is sick now and is about to leave.
It might happen sooner or later, but without your mother, the relationship between you and your father will inevitably change. I will do anything for you and give you everything in the family.
I hope that even if your father remarries in the future, your life will not change in any way.
Mo Lei was unaware that her husband, who had just returned from grocery shopping, had overheard her words.
At first, I felt particularly heartbroken when I heard the beginning, heartbroken that his wife was sick and still had to worry about him and their son. But the more I listened, the more disheartened I felt. It turned out that in his wife's heart, he was so untrustworthy.
He pretended not to hear, took a few steps back, and only spoke after they finished talking.
"When I was buying groceries today, I saw that the fish looked really fresh, so I bought one and will cook it for you guys in a bit."
What kind of fish would you like to eat? Pickled cabbage fish, sweet and sour fish, or braised fish?
Upon hearing Shen Ze's voice, Mo Lei quickly wiped away her tears and looked at him with a smile. "Anything you make is delicious."
"It's been so long since I've had anything flavorful, and my mouth is really big. How about we have braised food today?"
Shen Ze pretended not to hear anything and agreed, "Okay."
He went to the kitchen to prepare, and Mo Lei patted her son's hand, telling him to go in and think it over carefully.
Mo Lei followed her into the kitchen.
This would have been absolutely impossible in the past. Mo Lei disliked the heavy fumes in the kitchen and was unwilling to go in. Shen Ze had always been the one cooking.
"Shen Ze...did you hear everything just now?"
Mo Lei didn't hear the door open, but Shen Ze came in, so he must have heard it.
Shen Ze didn't say anything and continued with what he was doing, deftly processing the fish.
If they don't say anything, it means they know and are sulking.
"I said those things so that his son would understand my good intentions in the future."
I know you definitely love me, but I don't dare gamble with the future.
I just hope to arrange everything well so that our son can have a smooth future.
I don't ask for more houses in our family, but at least half of them should be transferred to our son.
"Keep the other half. If you and Mo Yan have a child, it can go to your child."
Shen Ze turned to look at Mo Lei with a dark face, "I can't have a child with anyone else. I only have one child, and that is Shen Ning."
Don't think about anything right now, just cooperate with the doctor's treatment, and leave everything to me.
And you don't need to think about finding him a stepmother either.
Whether he was sincere or not, at least what he said made Mo Lei very happy.
"I know, I know, I know you don't like my second sister, and that's exactly the effect I want. When I find a stepmother for my son, it has to be someone you don't like, and someone from our family, so that it can really be good for my son."
And you, you're always so forgetful, always losing things. I wouldn't feel at ease leaving the two of you without someone to take care of you."
The way she said that made it sound like she had done a lot, when in reality she hadn't done anything at all.
"Alright, let's talk about these things later. Let's focus on what's right now. Just listen to the doctor and get proper treatment, okay?"
Mo Lei shook her head and looked at Shen Ze seriously. "No, if you still don't agree to work with me and my second sister, I will not agree to cooperate with the investigation."
Only when she becomes yours can I feel at ease.
"And we also need to film that to use as leverage to control her later."
Shen Ze: "!!!"
Shen Ze stared at Mo Lei in shock, "Are you crazy?"
But then they discovered that his wife seemed to have gone mad, and was getting madder and madder.
"I'm not crazy. I'm just thinking about you and planning for you. I'm about to die, but I still hope that you two will be well."
I hope someone will take care of you. I hope the stepmother you find for my son later won't be just anyone.
This is my only wish now, and you must help me fulfill it.
Mo Lei no longer cared whether this man loved her or was disappointed in her. All she wanted now was to accomplish everything she wanted to do, and she had to do it!
"I understand, I agree."
The question is, will your sister sue us after she realizes what's happening?
Shen Ze's hesitation didn't last long, which, from another perspective, shows that he had wanted to do it for a long time, but he had the desire but not the courage, and he still had to maintain the image of an honest person in the eyes of others.
